Source files that disable KCSAN via KCSAN_SANITIZE := n, remove all instrumentation, including explicit barrier instrumentation. With instrumentation for memory barriers, in few places it is required to enable just the explicit instrumentation for memory barriers to avoid false positives. Providing the Makefile variable KCSAN_INSTRUMENT_BARRIERS_obj.o or KCSAN_INSTRUMENT_BARRIERS (for all files) set to 'y' only enables the explicit barrier instrumentation.
